Glamgirl,

Obvioulsy when we started our careers, or when we first thought about it, there was no Virgin Advert. But my point is that (well at least for me) I pictured that image. Apologies if I have tainted you with the same brush. However I think that Jaypee28bpr made a very good point:

it's amusing to see the cabin crew contributors to the debate called "Glamgirl", "Lowcostdolly", and "High-heeled FA", so there is an element of playing to the stereotype portrayed in the article
No matter how much you (we) try to hide it, we are the sterotype. I just don't think we should be as harsh to people that share the same opinons as the person who wrote the article. Although I must say to Jaypee that I am not playing when it comes to my name. I really am THE high heeld flight attendant! but I think that is just because I'm from Essex!
